From nutrition hacks to workout strategies, I’ll cut through the myths and give you actionable advice to transform your body. If you’re in LA and ready for real results, let’s dive in and get you on the path to a leaner, more energized you!
To tone your body, gain muscle, and lose fat, you must be willing to change your habits and lifestyle. As a Holistic Personal Trainer in Los Angeles and Certified Nutrition Coach, I will be the first to tell you that it is not easy to lose fat. It takes a lot of hard work, dedication, and consistency. From my experience with clients, I have found that initially people are always “gun ho” or ready and willing to train hard in the beginning; but what many lack is follow-through and consistency. In order to have success, you must be dedicated and consistent. Without these two principles as your motto, you are bound to fail in the long run.
I completely understand that you probably have more important priorities in your life such as family, work, religion, etc. It then becomes an issue of time management which is to fit all of these important priorities into your week. Taking this into consideration, I have put together a few tips that should help you along your way. The rest is up to you…
The following tips I use with my clients which should help you transform your body. They are broken up into the following categories: Diet, Strength Training (weight lifting), and Cardio. You should be able to grade yourself in each category. Be honest and grade yourself between the letters “A through F.” For example, “A” is for a person who does extremely well within a particular category, “C” is doing okay, and “F” would be pretty much zero effort within a particular category. Ask yourself the question: “Am I making an A in all three categories?”
What I have found from working with my clients is that many people might do well in one or two categories, while completely ignoring another. In order to transform your body as efficiently and quickly as possible, you must grade yourself and get at least a B+ or higher in each category. Please be honest when your grading yourself.
I won’t elaborate on the physiological details as to why these tips work. However, the tips included in this article are an up-to-date reflection of the medical, bodybuilding, and scientific community.
Strength training with weights and interval training are hands down the two best ways to increase metabolism and muscle mass. Read more details on my latest blog Strength Training and Weight Loss.

Fat loss isn’t just about diet and exercise—it’s about addressing the whole you. My 10-pillars framework (detox, digestion, breathing, water intake, injury rehab, movement, nutrition, exercise, sleep, thoughts and meditation) ensures comprehensive results. For example, poor sleep can sabotage fat loss by disrupting hormones, while stress promotes belly fat storage. My tips above fit into this approach to make fat loss effortless and sustainable.
